Summary The fungal bioluminescence pathway (FBP) was identified from glowing fungi, which releases self‐sustained visible green luminescence. However, weak limits the potential application of system. Here, we screened and characterized a C3′H1 (4‐coumaroyl shikimate/quinate 3′‐hydroxylase) gene Brassica napus , efficiently converts p ‐coumaroyl shikimate to caffeic acid hispidin. Simultaneous expression BnC3′H1 NPGA (null‐pigment mutant in A. nidulans ) produces more hispidin as natural...
Abstract Autoluminescent plants have been genetically modified to express the fungal bioluminescence pathway (FBP). However, a bottleneck in precursor production has limited brightness of these luminescent plants. Here, we demonstrate effectiveness utilizing computational model guide multiplex five-gene-silencing strategy by an artificial microRNA array enhance caffeic acid (CA) and hispidin levels By combining loss-of-function-directed metabolic flux with tyrosine-derived CA pathway,...
